I’m so glad I’m not the only one who can’t get into the Libre camp. It just goes straight up to my head every time I use the sampler and not in a good way…
The prices of Chanel when it comes to the Chance collection are just ridiculous. Such bad performance at such a high price is robbery, in my personal experience and opinion. I can douse myself in perfumes with not that great longevity, when they are decent in prices, but Chanel ... no way. I don't understand why no one else, besides you, Ilythia, really adresses this issue, since I know I am not the only one experiencing it. Is it because it is the "sacred" Chanel we are talking about? I had the Chance eau Tendre edp version, and it was very pretty, but the weak lasting power made me declutter it. I just got so frustrated with the poor quality considering the poor lasting power, weak projection and high price, that I really couldn't enjoy it.
the lasting power for the EDTs your right is not great. The original chance EDP lasts pretty long I find, coco noir is somewhere in the middle, coco mademoiselle is a beast, allure lasts a while, No 5 is decent.. its really that popular eau tendre that needs to step it up a notch!!. The EDTs I think are justified as they're not supposed to last all day in my opinion. But yes I guess when we're paying for a very high end designer we can expect a hefty price tag. Same goes for handbags. $1,000 for a small leather good? Definitely not the leather we're paying for lol.
I get very good longevity with chance edp, especially on clothes it lasts days… Same with eau tendre edp. I live in France so maybe it depends on where it’s manufactured ?
I agree. I LOVE chanel as a brand in general, but their perfumes are a scam. Although even their bags, I used to love them and now their quality has gone down hill and yet they keep doing price increases? what a scam
I have an 11 years old son who is a perfume addict and knows a lot about fragrance (because he watches perfume reviewers on yotube). He's got a collection of no less than 11 perfumes and everytime that i plan a trip to Boots or Superdrug he wants to come with me, just to sample some fragrances. At his age, i wanted to build up a collection of Barbie dolls. He went straight from being a Lego Creator and Hot Wheels collector to a fragrance collector.
I’m surprised Mon Guerlain and miss Dior isn’t in that list. I love these scents (and yes, even the 2021 miss Dior!) they will forever be in my collection. La vie est belle is amazing and I cannot believe it isn’t in the list either- it lasts all day and even into the next when sprayed near your hair. It’s like a beautiful vanilla cuddle that I will always adore and hope that my kids will associate the smell with good mummy memories 🥰
I wear what I like whether it's popular or not. My signature scent is Bottega Veneta, since it came out in 2011, I never smell it on anyone. I like Black Opium, Coco M, Chance eau Tendre, Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue Intense for summer.
Just like Black Opium LVEB is a lifer for me! I just started getting more in depth into fragrances but those two have been with me for years idc what the critics say, lol. Just effortless everyday scents.
My #1 favorite is Kilian Angels Share, #2 Lancome La vie est belle #3 Good Girl (original), #4 Gucci Guilty, #6 Dolce and Gabbana light blue. I do mix and match depending in my mood but Angels Share is usually my go to 😁. Black Opium gave me the worse headache ever😫. Gave it to my sister. She loves it but can't wear it around me.
Wow! What an interesting list! Chanel Chance Eau Tendre is my most worn perfume and therefore, the dent in it is the most noticeable. I’m still surprised to see it making it to the top. I just layered it with Kayali Vanilla 28 and I think it’s pretty enticing! Adds a bit more warmth to it.
Recently donated my black opium travel size to a young homeless girl that frequents the pantry we stock daily. No regrets there.. hope she enjoys it :) I'm a teenager at heart, and don't like smelling like other people around me.
Interesting list... I'm wearing Coco Mademoiselle during my teenage years😳 so now as a mature woman i'm more into C No.5, i only have one out of all the fragrances in this list which is Libre EDP.
I!'d like to add to my collection born in Roma and Alien... Btw I have la vie est Belle and I really Love it, I don' t care if is a best seller or if everybody has it... I enjoy it and it's a must have to me.
I just turned 20 and got super into perfumes over quarantine. My top 3 perfumes are Delina, Delina La Rose, and MFK gentle fluidity gold. I absolutely love Niche perfumes. The only designer perfume I own is Burberry Her and for Celeb I have Cloud.
ysl libre eau de toilette just reminds me of a really clean, put-together girl, which is why it's my signature and favourite scent. Even when you are anything but organized, it makes you feel like you are. As a 15-year-old in a really strict grammar school, it's not too strong and it reduces to a skin scent with really long-lasting power.
It's interesting to see the difference in social media polls vs actual best selling fragrances. Thanks for sharing! Oh, also for anyone in the US wanting to get Donna Born In Roma and is an Ulta shopper, it's the current fragrance crush which means you get 5x the rewards points on it. This offer is thru March 12. Great way to build points to use towards other fragrance purchases. :)
For Spring and Summer I will be wearing my JHAG collection (Not a Perfume, Not a Perfume Superdose, Mmm, Lipstick Fever and Pear Inc. for more formal affairs Delina or Atomic Rose) NOW, my alltimer is vintage 1000 edp or extract from Jean Patou.
I love Chanel Chance eau tendre! I have the edt and I used to think it didn't last very long either, but I still get complements at the end of the day❤
Thank you Ilythia! I really enjoyed this video! 😊 So difficult to select one favorite. I love Valentino Donna and am so surprised that born in Roma is so much more popular. I also love Mon Guerlain intense, Poême from Lancôme, Pure Poison ( to mention few favorites:)) Thanks to you I also discovered Miss Dior edp, 2017 formulation. So grateful for having it in my collection. 💖
Some of these sound very interesting. I've used the same perfume for years and my favorites are: Coco Chanel, Tresor Lancome ( a man came up to me & asked what I had on and said he was going to get it for his wife.), Le Vie Est Belle Lancome and Opium Yves St. Laurent (I use this during the winter only due to the heavy spicy scent). I just added Calvin Klein Eternity Moment to my perfume repertoire
I think some people in the frag community are afraid to say they like le vie est belle. And probably a lot of people that like it are not obsessed with perfumes and wouldn’t be voting. I happen to love it but I’m not surprised by the voting. I am weird though - I have no interest in the top 3 on your list. I love that we are all different.
@@annjohnson6193 true. And there are others. But I have found many that think it’s too common, too old school, too whatever. It’s popular for a reason.
I'n just gonna say it. I LOVE LA VIE EST BELLE. It's beautiful, sweet, intense and very long lasting. I've been wearing it since 10am and it's 9pm now, it's still going strong.
My favorites are PDM Oriana, MFK BR540, and the Extrait, and I also love Delina, Burberry Her, and Love Don’t be Shy. I love sweet scents! Those are my ones I could wear every single day! I also love Perfect, Wonderlust, Daisy, Cloud, and today I’m wearing Jimmy Choo Flash layered with a super old Ed Hardy I’m trying to use up! My newest obsession is Lalique Soleil and English Laundry No 7. I have 3 perfume subscriptions! I have a perfume obsession!
Surprised a good girl isn’t on here. So many on here are shocking to beat that line out. Taste is definitely funny when it comes to fragrance. Good girl legere is my all time favorite perfume. Something about it always keeps me coming back even if I think I find a new love, it never replaces legere.
Imo and it doesn’t make the other less than but legere is the standout from that line. The others are great on their own but it has a special quality to it and it definitely gets over looked and most people don’t even realize how good it is.
My favorite perfume (today) is Pas Ce Sior by BDK. Honestly I didn’t even like it very much the first time I tried. But I’ve become addicted to it. Something about the ginger makes me keep coming back for more!
Was a little bit surprised that la belle, a la folie, crystal noir wasn't in there but great list, I have some of those and really love them especially flowerbomb, libre, cloud and you are right about si fiori, no nice for wedding. It's soft, feminine 👍🥰
I own Coco Mademoiselle, Libre, and Black Opium from this list. I love all three for different reasons, but lately I've been enjoying Libre and Black Opium more, probably because they're the newer ones to my collection. I smelled the Illicit Green version for the first time today and it's quite nice! But not quite different enough to justify having both. Libre is is probably my most unique fragrance in my collection. In the first sniff, I felt like it was too different for me. I usually gravitate towards fresh, light, maybe a little sweet scent profiles and Libre smelled a bit too heavy to me. But then I kept sniffing my arm throughout the day and thinking about the kind of woman that would wear that perfume and I liked the persona I came up with and now it's one of my top favorites!
I’m a little more old school when it comes to my fragrances. Not surprised that Coco Chanel was on the list . I use to work in a cosmetic store and Chanel perfumes, we literally couldn’t keep them on the shelf. My personal favorites are White Linen , Tea Rose or Lulu . Only because I work these in middle /high school .
MFK Baccarat Rouge 540, Dior Hypnotic Poison, Parfume de Marley Delina, MM By the Fireplace and Nishane Ani round out my personal top 5! This was surprising. Would be interesting to see favorites broken down by age groups. I am 57.
YSL Black Opium is still one of my favorites. I don't care how tired it is, I still love it and it makes me feel happy when I wear it. I love Mon Guerlain after the dry down as well. I'm totally late to the game with Baccarat Rouge 540 and Ariana's Cloud, but I have samples coming in the mail. I'm definitely curious to smell the hype.
The entire Libre line makes me feel nauseous and like I'm about to have a migraine. I think for me it's the lavender. My top 5: Delina, Ambre Narguile, Angel, Coromandel and Chloe.
Your first pronunciation of quince is correct. I’m a foodie/cooking and baking junkie and can confirm it is not kince 😁. I once picked them from a neighbour’s quince shrub/bush as a kid thinking they were funny looking apples and lost a baby tooth trying to bite into one 😂. They are hard as rocks but taste sweet and sour when made into jams and compotes. Wonderful video!
@@arianaraquel1958 in American and Canadian English, the fruit Quince sounds out as KWINS. Maybe in Spanish it’s as you’ve said it is. You don’t have to take my word for it. You can verify it through a search online.
@@mamoni7703 it’s pronounced this way in Australia also, which I had assumed would be British English pronunciation. So interesting! I wonder where it’s different 😊
I will always buy what smells good to me, what works with my body chemistry, and what works in my life. I have spent $600 on a bottle and I've spent $20. I have some designer, some niche, and some body mists from bath & body works! I just buy what I love...I mean within reason 🙄 you aren't going to see the bottle of Shumukh or Clive Christian Imperial Majesty on my vanity 😂😂😂
Having bought perfumes all my life, I have fixed on: 'Tubereuse' by Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier; 'Tuberose' by Monotheme; 'Patchouli' oil by Julia Lawless; 'White Jasmine' by Woods of Windsor; 'Driftwood and Seasalt' by Bloom, and 'Sandalo' by Lorenzo Villoresi.
I just decluttered the Tendre edp, it's just to musty on me. I want to either get the edt or Eau Vive next. I love these kind of lists, it's interesting to see others top picks.
I can totally see Si Fiori beating out Si or si intense but then again Si Fiori is my absolute favorite of the line.. such a pretty soft every day scent good anytime of year for me.
Love this video! I am too new to frag game to get into niche and I’m just now starting to dabble in the designer private collections. So my favs list isn’t very exciting to most lol but I also love several on this list. They will have to pry Black Opium from my cold dead fingers, Born in Roma is in my top 2 or 3, also loce Mon Guerlain but hate Libre lol, and although the cost is ridiculous for what you get with performance, longevity, and silage, the most heavenly scent in my modest collection is Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet. 😊
I also love Blooming Bouquet but the obnoxious pricing let me to Zara's Nude bouquet. A dupe that satisfies my craving for Dior's BB for the fraction of the price. You might wanna give it a try ☺️
i have two favorites that I've worn all my life. "Coeur Joie" by Nina Ricci and "Vol de Nuit" by Guerlain. Light and delicious, they are both timeless classic fragrances. Although they are hard to find, they are very much worth the hunt.
Scents whether perfumes, eau de toilettes or colognes are so individual based on one's own unique nose and personality! Rive Gauche i.e. Left Bank by YSL was my signature scent for decades, but seems to strong for me now. We change in myriad ways as we get older. Our tastes can stay the same in some respects and differ in other ways when it comes to fashion, food, etc. Now, I wear Champs Elysee by the House of Guerlain and love to wear Liz Taylor's Gardenia in the Spring and Summer months because it seems so perfect for that time of year! Thanks for the list here.
My all time favorite is Tiempe Passate by Antonia's Flowers. Unfortunately, they are no longer in business. My new favorite is Iris Des Champs by Houbigant.
I'm surprised that Love Don't be Shy, Poison Girl or Bacarrat 540 didn't make the list. My favorites are Gucci Bloom, Donna born in Roma, Delina & Exclusif, Si flori. Eau Tender, not to impressed yet.
Born in Roma is good but It’s not exciting. it’s also not offensive. I would recommend to people with allergies. I have had thought many times I don’t need this one, but of the black current options I’ve tried this one is my favorite. Better than si intense for me.
The perfume I wear every day is Flowerbomb EDP. I can get enough. It's all I've worn for about 8 years now! My next favourite is Narciso Rodriguez Fer Her EDP, and my third favourite is SJP Lovely. I used to wear Issy Miyake l'eau d'Issy. I need to maybe find a new signature scent!
Loved the perfide creature from 1990-IEA But i havnt got my hands on it for over 20 years. I think it was from US. Today i like YSL manifesta, and Oscar de la renta
Wow, a little surprising, but I absolutely love chance eau tendre, I have the edp, but it’s one of my favorites in my collection to like you said just feel clean and put together!!💕
Black opium, Flowerbomb, and YSL libre intense are the only designer I wear now. I have graduated to niche. I absolutely love Kayali too. I own the big bottle of “Invite only” and now I have the big bottle of “VANILLA 28” and BDK “Gris Charnel on its way to me now and I’m so delighted to get them! I also own Chanel Coco Noir. That’s the best smelling one honestly. The only Chanel fragrance I own, and I’ve had them all. Tom ford rose prick and ombré leather are my jams right now. I need a new bottle of bakkarat but dang it’s expensive but I’m gonna have to get a new bottle while I can
I like Chanel Coco Mademoiselle but the prices are exorbitant. I recently bought Armaf Club de Nuit, which is dupe for this Chanel, fraction of the price, and I love it.
I bought my 18 yo granddaughter Coco M for her birthday along with jewelry and a piece of my jewelry now for every BD and Christmas. We both love different Jo Malone fragrances we bought on her first trip to London and Paris when 16. My grandparents were from the farm. I doubt they ever smelled or thought about Chanel. How a few generations have changed things for just ordinary people like us.
I am shook, I live in the Uk and travel to Europe a lot and the most poular scents there are Armani My Way and Olympea, shocked they are not on the list
This is a really good example of why I didn't like most perfumes at a fragrance counter or in stores. I've smelled all of them except the Kayali and the only ones I like or can wear are: Alien, Rouge Malachite and Libre. Most of the rest of them are unwearable.
Lol the average person has between 1-5 bottles of perfume IF they have any. That's why I buy whatever perfume I want no matter how popular the perfume may be. I pass by lots of people daily and rarely do I smell a fragrance on them. Perfumes are popular by us fragrance people and on UA-cam but not the average person walking around. I've never smelled anybody wearing Delina lol
I find that it is one of the many, many things I love about Paris. People smell good! Look forward to intersections and department stores and smelling people with the lovely scents. I live in a beach town in Florida. No people walking around much and no good smelling people on the corner. Sometimes somebody drowned in bad perfume in an elevator. The worst. No, the worst is a long taxi ride with a cheap yuck scent on the driver who is blaring music and playing the drums on the steering wheel.
I'm going to age myself but in the late '70's, Ralph Lauren debuted "Lauren" in the maroon and gold bottle. I have tried MANY colognes/perfumes over the years and this is the one that garners the MOST compliments for me. Are you familiar with it????
Very fun video! What’s funny is that where I live (in the US right on the outskirts of a major metropolitan area) Coco Mademoiselle is very popular with the late teens/early-mid 20s crowd. I have yet to come across anyone over 26 wearing it. Fun fact: I once heard a guy say that Coco Mademoiselle smells like a high-end escort and now that’s al I can think of every time I smell it 🤣
The most amazing of past scents is Rain by the original Khiel's Pharmacy ( before Khiel's was bought out bt L'Oreal) Khiel's discontinued it bc of cost of ingredients. It was bottled in a small dark brown medicinal- type bottle with a little label with typewriter type labeling on a little white tab. They were the original in that kind of labeling. Miss it SO MUCH!!
I bought the Lancome Love Calendar 2022 and it had La nuit tresor in the box. Sadly I don't like it, the note that I mostly smell is passionfruit which I don't like in this perfume. But It's crazy how many compliments I get with this, it's my most complimented perfume.
My favourite perfume is Bulgari Goldea. I also love Bulgari Omnia which has been discontinued for years and I'm sad about that. I also love Agent provocateur fatale, so light and sexy. I always get compliments when wearing it. Unfortunately it has also been discontinued. I don't like wearing what everyone else wears as I don't like smelling like everyone else. I never buy scents that are being advertised as that's sure way to get everyone smelling the same in the moment.
The poll is limited to YOUR Instagram followers not everyone on Instagram. This is important because the people polled a might be all related in age, interests, geography, etc. That doesn’t mean those are the best or most popular fragrances.
Right now I'm loving Perfect by Marc Jacobs, and Cassiopea by Tiziana Terenzi, and Attrape-Reves by Louis Vuitton. But the one I am wearing daily is Sunset Hour by Goldfield and Banks. It's wonderful. Do you accept decanted samples? I'd be happy to send you a bit.
@@arsmith6585 I ordered from ZGO Perfumery in San Francisco. They sent me a 15% off code. If you'd like it, I'm happy to share. (no connection to them at all other than being a customer.)
I have so many faves it's ridiculous. Currently it's Tom Ford's Lost Cherry, which I can't get enough of. I also love Mon Guerlain EDP (not the EDT), Alien, Prada's Candy and also their Infusion d'Iris, The Body Shop's White Musk will always be a love, as will Hugo Boss Deep Red. Gucci Flora - but only the EDP which is really syrupy/fruity as well as floral that always gets me compliments. Chanel Madamoiselle is an everyday go-to which I like, but doesn't thrill me. Gucci Guilty Intense (when it was first released) also got me lots of compliments. L' Occitane's Cherry Blossom is a spring favourite, and Roger & Gallet's Fleur de Figuer is what I always wear when it's so hot I need something to cut through the fetid summer fug. I adore Rouge Baccarat but it works so much better for me in winter, while my favourite autumn scent is Ange ou Demon by Givenchy. I used to have Dior Midnight Poison as my favourite, but it got discontinued and I'm gutted, because that really was my all-time signature favourite. I was also gutted when Cacherel stopped making Gloria because that too was a real favourite. Same with Dior Addict. I also LOVED Valentino's Donna Acqua which smelled like Mon Guerlain, but with marzipan and pear notes. I discovered it just as it was being discontinued. I'm kind of doomed when it comes to scents. Or anything really. As soon as I decide I like something, it gets discontinued, lol. I'm just ridiculously obsessed with fragrance, not at all snobbish about price or labels...in fact I really enjoy Katy Perry's Killer Queen - especially when I can buy a perfume, shower gel & body lotion for £15!
Have you tried Narciso Musc Noir? I personally don't love the other Narciso, but this one I actually love!!! To me it's a really soft and clean soapy scent perfect for everyday... I'd love to hear your thoughts!🥰
My mother would buy me a new bottle of Estee Lauder’s “spellbound “ each birthday for years, in my youth; Chanel “Limited edition Poppy” is on my dresser and Christian Dior “miss Dior”. I actually have to test products like this before buying. Try to steer clear of the pop diva perfumes as I view them as temporary
Si fiori from Armani seems to Been launched 2018-2019. If this is so popular-,why are they not going to sell it anymore? I tried to find on swedish sites But could only find it on one little
@@jazelannehomol3762 I found it at $39.00 with a trusted seller from Ebay. It is not a lineal perfume it is airy, floral, fruity a little sweet and has an amazing projection on me a fantastic sillage (I over spray everything😬😳) on my skin lasts 9 to 10 hours, longer in my hair and until cleaning on textiles. After all, is a Francis Kurkdjian creation.
I have had it before and it's gorgeous - but for me a bit too strong. I wanted to keep it but couldn't, I got headaches. But absolutely beautiful scent.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who can’t get into the Libre camp. It just goes straight up to my head every time I use the sampler and not in a good way…
Smells like a department store bathroom to me. Also makes nauseous
I’m obsessed with Versace Bright Crystal Absolu is my favorite and I love Carolina Herrera Good Girl 💕

My newest obsession is Lalique Soleil and English Laundry No 7. I have 3 perfume subscriptions! I have a perfume obsession!
Surprised a good girl isn’t on here. So many on here are shocking to beat that line out. Taste is definitely funny when it comes to fragrance. Good girl legere is my all time favorite perfume. Something about it always keeps me coming back even if I think I find a new love, it never replaces legere.
Yes that one didn't come up nearly as often as I thought it would!
I LOVE Legere! Definitely in my top 5!
Imo and it doesn’t make the other less than but legere is the standout from that line. The others are great on their own but it has a special quality to it and it definitely gets over looked and most people don’t even realize how good it is.
I'm going to buy it now for sure!:)
My favorite perfume (today) is Pas Ce Sior by BDK. Honestly I didn’t even like it very much the first time I tried. But I’ve become addicted to it. Something about the ginger makes me keep coming back for more!
Was a little bit surprised that la belle, a la folie, crystal noir wasn't in there but great list, I have some of those and really love them especially flowerbomb, libre, cloud and you are right about si fiori, no nice for wedding. It's soft, feminine 👍🥰
yes! Well, all of the above were voted for but the number of votes didn't make the top 15. I was surprised too!!
I own Coco Mademoiselle, Libre, and Black Opium from this list. I love all three for different reasons, but lately I've been enjoying Libre and Black Opium more, probably because they're the newer ones to my collection. I smelled the Illicit Green version for the first time today and it's quite nice! But not quite different enough to justify having both. Libre is is probably my most unique fragrance in my collection. In the first sniff, I felt like it was too different for me. I usually gravitate towards fresh, light, maybe a little sweet scent profiles and Libre smelled a bit too heavy to me. But then I kept sniffing my arm throughout the day and thinking about the kind of woman that would wear that perfume and I liked the persona I came up with and now it's one of my top favorites!
I’m a little more old school when it comes to my fragrances. Not surprised that Coco Chanel was on the list . I use to work in a cosmetic store and Chanel perfumes, we literally couldn’t keep them on the shelf. My personal favorites are White Linen , Tea Rose or Lulu . Only because I work these in middle /high school .
Lulu is a favorite. When I wear it I always get asked about my scent.
MFK Baccarat Rouge 540, Dior Hypnotic Poison, Parfume de Marley Delina, MM By the Fireplace and Nishane Ani round out my personal top 5! This was surprising. Would be interesting to see favorites broken down by age groups. I am 57.
Chanel Chance Eau Tendre EDT always! ❤️ Thank you for this favorites list!
I love Rouge Malachite not thanks to an influencer but a trip to Armani prive counter and just loove it for date night!
YSL Black Opium is still one of my favorites. I don't care how tired it is, I still love it and it makes me feel happy when I wear it. I love Mon Guerlain after the dry down as well. I'm totally late to the game with Baccarat Rouge 540 and Ariana's Cloud, but I have samples coming in the mail. I'm definitely curious to smell the hype.
The entire Libre line makes me feel nauseous and like I'm about to have a migraine. I think for me it's the lavender. My top 5: Delina, Ambre Narguile, Angel, Coromandel and Chloe.
Are you nauseous when you smell it on other people too? I love libre but don’t want to make people vomit
Your first pronunciation of quince is correct. I’m a foodie/cooking and baking junkie and can confirm it is not kince 😁. I once picked them from a neighbour’s quince shrub/bush as a kid thinking they were funny looking apples and lost a baby tooth trying to bite into one 😂. They are hard as rocks but taste sweet and sour when made into jams and compotes. Wonderful video!
And an amazing accompaniment to cheese! 🤤
@@LiviaBrash absolutely! Making me so hungry 🤤
oh good!! thank you!!! lol I've heard a few people say "keentz" and I was like um... have I been mispronouncing it????
@@arianaraquel1958 in American and Canadian English, the fruit Quince sounds out as KWINS. Maybe in Spanish it’s as you’ve said it is. You don’t have to take my word for it. You can verify it through a search online.
@@mamoni7703 it’s pronounced this way in Australia also, which I had assumed would be British English pronunciation. So interesting! I wonder where it’s different 😊
I will always buy what smells good to me, what works with my body chemistry, and what works in my life. I have spent $600 on a bottle and I've spent $20. I have some designer, some niche, and some body mists from bath & body works! I just buy what I love...I mean within reason 🙄 you aren't going to see the bottle of Shumukh or Clive Christian Imperial Majesty on my vanity 😂😂😂
Having bought perfumes all my life, I have fixed on: 'Tubereuse' by Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier; 'Tuberose' by Monotheme; 'Patchouli' oil by Julia Lawless; 'White Jasmine' by Woods of Windsor; 'Driftwood and Seasalt' by Bloom, and 'Sandalo' by Lorenzo Villoresi.
All time favorite so far is Elie Saab Le Parfum
I just decluttered the Tendre edp, it's just to musty on me. I want to either get the edt or Eau Vive next. I love these kind of lists, it's interesting to see others top picks.
the eau vive is amazing!!!!
I can totally see Si Fiori beating out Si or si intense but then again Si Fiori is my absolute favorite of the line.. such a pretty soft every day scent good anytime of year for me.
Original Chance EDP is the best! And it does last, never makes me sneeze, or give any headache. ❤️
Fun fact I have the Chanel Chance Eau Vive because I found it in the trunk of my car when I was broke 😅 at least I smelled like money.
My favorites are Alien, Mon Guerlain Intense and Gucci Bloom :)
Love this video! I am too new to frag game to get into niche and I’m just now starting to dabble in the designer private collections. So my favs list isn’t very exciting to most lol but I also love several on this list. They will have to pry Black Opium from my cold dead fingers, Born in Roma is in my top 2 or 3, also loce Mon Guerlain but hate Libre lol, and although the cost is ridiculous for what you get with performance, longevity, and silage, the most heavenly scent in my modest collection is Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet. 😊
Haha I love your description of how much you love black opium!!!:)
I also love Blooming Bouquet but the obnoxious pricing let me to Zara's Nude bouquet. A dupe that satisfies my craving for Dior's BB for the fraction of the price. You might wanna give it a try ☺️
To me, Calvin Klein Euphoria is absolute perfection.
Yeah I just smelled it in my ulta catalog and I was really surprised how much I liked it, I never hear anything about it
It's my signature since it first came out!!!
Valentino DBIR is my absolute favorite!! Burberry her is my top choice as well.
i have two favorites that I've worn all my life. "Coeur Joie" by Nina Ricci and "Vol de Nuit" by Guerlain. Light and delicious, they are both timeless classic fragrances. Although they are hard to find, they are very much worth the hunt.
Vol de Nuit I loved it but due tot many changes I forgot about it
I have the same experience with Libre I thought it was only me with how popular it is 😔😔
I absolutely despise the smell of Libre intense, Libre is okay but I felt like it was a flat scent and I don't really understand the hype
Scents whether perfumes, eau de toilettes or colognes are so individual based on one's own unique nose and personality! Rive Gauche i.e. Left Bank by YSL was my signature scent for decades, but seems to strong for me now. We change in myriad ways as we get older. Our tastes can stay the same in some respects and differ in other ways when it comes to fashion, food, etc. Now, I wear Champs Elysee by the House of Guerlain and love to wear Liz Taylor's Gardenia in the Spring and Summer months because it seems so perfect for that time of year! Thanks for the list here.
Currently obsessed with Atomic Rose 🌹
My all time favorite is Tiempe Passate by Antonia's Flowers. Unfortunately, they are no longer in business. My new favorite is Iris Des Champs by Houbigant.
Juliette Has a Gun - Pear scent at Sephora. Complimented every time I wear it ❤️
My fav is estee lauder's sensuous. I think it is kinda similar to lancome's jasmins marzipan, but way cheaper.
I'm surprised that Love Don't be Shy, Poison Girl or Bacarrat 540 didn't make the list. My favorites are Gucci Bloom, Donna born in Roma, Delina & Exclusif, Si flori. Eau Tender, not to impressed yet.
Me too! And yet baccarat is currently getting voted for as a disliked one in my polls!:) it’s crazy.
@@thesimplechiclife Wow! I guess I'll be the only that still love bacarrat. I can live with that. 💛👍
I love Alien and Chance eau Tendre - they were both loves at first sniff!
Guerlain insolance and Shalimar....LOVE THEM !!
Exactly my thoughts on Burberry Her, not huge on strawberry notes 😅 but still keeping it in my collection
Born in Roma is good but It’s not exciting. it’s also not offensive. I would recommend to people with allergies. I have had thought many times I don’t need this one, but of the black current options I’ve tried this one is my favorite. Better than si intense for me.
My signature scent is Versace Bright Crystal!!! I just bought the biggest bottle! It's heavenly! 💖💋
I have a huge collection, but my signature scent is, and will always be La Vie Est Belle. I don’t mind being the uncool kid who’s still rocking it!😂
The perfume I wear every day is Flowerbomb EDP. I can get enough. It's all I've worn for about 8 years now! My next favourite is Narciso Rodriguez Fer Her EDP, and my third favourite is SJP Lovely. I used to wear Issy Miyake l'eau d'Issy. I need to maybe find a new signature scent!
I have heard Narciso Rodriguez For Her EDP is very similar to SJP Lovely. What do you think about this comparison? Truth or fake? I’m between both
@@livl2016 - I don't find them similar at all!
I love SJP's Lovely!!!! Still have a bottle! It's so soft and sweet!
Channel Allure , Coco Mademoiselle, Lancome La Vie E Belle, Clinique Aromatics Elixir
Aww I'm so sad Libre makes you feel nauseous. I love Libre, it's such a sophisticated scent!
I agree I think alien smells purple
Loved the perfide creature from 1990-IEA But i havnt got my hands on it for over 20 years. I think it was from US. Today i like YSL manifesta, and Oscar de la renta
Wow, a little surprising, but I absolutely love chance eau tendre, I have the edp, but it’s one of my favorites in my collection to like you said just feel clean and put together!!💕
Black opium, Flowerbomb, and YSL libre intense are the only designer I wear now. I have graduated to niche. I absolutely love Kayali too. I own the big bottle of “Invite only” and now I have the big bottle of “VANILLA 28” and BDK “Gris Charnel on its way to me now and I’m so delighted to get them! I also own Chanel Coco Noir. That’s the best smelling one honestly. The only Chanel fragrance I own, and I’ve had them all. Tom ford rose prick and ombré leather are my jams right now. I need a new bottle of bakkarat but dang it’s expensive but I’m gonna have to get a new bottle while I can
Romance ( Ralph Lauren), Paris Hilton, Fantasy, Diesel loverdose redkiss ( I own a few on the list though)
I like Chanel Coco Mademoiselle but the prices are exorbitant. I recently bought Armaf Club de Nuit, which is dupe for this Chanel, fraction of the price, and I love it.
Club de Nuit is my SOTD! ♡
I bought my 18 yo granddaughter Coco M for her birthday along with jewelry and a piece of my jewelry now for every BD and Christmas. We both love different Jo Malone fragrances we bought on her first trip to London and Paris when 16. My grandparents were from the farm. I doubt they ever smelled or thought about Chanel. How a few generations have changed things for just ordinary people like us.
I am shook, I live in the Uk and travel to Europe a lot and the most poular scents there are Armani My Way and Olympea, shocked they are not on the list
Both were voted for but these are just the top 15 most highly voted for.
This is a really good example of why I didn't like most perfumes at a fragrance counter or in stores. I've smelled all of them except the Kayali and the only ones I like or can wear are:
Alien, Rouge Malachite and Libre. Most of the rest of them are unwearable.
No surprise with Alien but I’m surprised with Ariana 🌸
I adore Sì Fiori and did get a backup bottle. From the list I'd like to try Born in Roma, sounds delicious.
Love wearing Contre Moi by Louis Vuitton and Eau Duelle EDP by Diptyque. Definitely love vanilla! Great vid xx 🌸
Tell me you work in health care without telling me you work in health care: uses the correct word, "nauseated" instead of "nauseous." 😄
😂 not to mention one time I referred to my boyfriend as “alert and oriented”. 🙄 😂 you can’t take the nurse out of the girl lol.
But some people do smell nauseous!
I am surprised that Mon Guerlain did not make it on the top of this list....
It was voted for but not high enough to make top 15:) I’m also surprised !!
How did Miss Dior not make the list? My favourite perfume, which I have to smell everyday even if I'm not wearing it that day.☹😯
I do too! I layer it with Valentino Dona every morning💗
Lol the average person has between 1-5 bottles of perfume IF they have any. That's why I buy whatever perfume I want no matter how popular the perfume may be. I pass by lots of people daily and rarely do I smell a fragrance on them. Perfumes are popular by us fragrance people and on UA-cam but not the average person walking around. I've never smelled anybody wearing Delina lol
Neither have I! In fact I almost never smell perfume on other people lol.
@@thesimplechiclife yeah me either lol
I find that it is one of the many, many things I love about Paris. People smell good! Look forward to intersections and department stores and smelling people with the lovely scents. I live in a beach town in Florida. No people walking around much and no good smelling people on the corner. Sometimes somebody drowned in bad perfume in an elevator. The worst. No, the worst is a long taxi ride with a cheap yuck scent on the driver who is blaring music and playing the drums on the steering wheel.
I'm going to age myself but in the late '70's, Ralph Lauren debuted "Lauren" in the maroon and gold bottle. I have tried MANY colognes/perfumes over the years and this is the one that garners the MOST compliments for me. Are you familiar with it????
Of the Valentino I like voce viva. I also like the Armani si.
I have Voce Viva in a sample and it’s nice. Seems lighter than Donna Born in Roma. I’m still a Donna gal, though. 😅
Very fun video! What’s funny is that where I live (in the US right on the outskirts of a major metropolitan area) Coco Mademoiselle is very popular with the late teens/early-mid 20s crowd. I have yet to come across anyone over 26 wearing it.
Fun fact: I once heard a guy say that Coco Mademoiselle smells like a high-end escort and now that’s al I can think of every time I smell it 🤣
I'm 40 and I still smell like a "high end escort" apparently 😅
The most amazing of past scents is Rain by the original Khiel's Pharmacy ( before Khiel's was bought out bt L'Oreal) Khiel's discontinued it bc of cost of ingredients. It was bottled in a small dark brown medicinal- type bottle with a little label with typewriter type labeling on a little white tab. They were the original in that kind of labeling. Miss it SO MUCH!!
I bought the Lancome Love Calendar 2022 and it had La nuit tresor in the box. Sadly I don't like it, the note that I mostly smell is passionfruit which I don't like in this perfume. But It's crazy how many compliments I get with this, it's my most complimented perfume.
My favourite perfume is Bulgari Goldea. I also love Bulgari Omnia which has been discontinued for years and I'm sad about that. I also love Agent provocateur fatale, so light and sexy. I always get compliments when wearing it. Unfortunately it has also been discontinued.
I don't like wearing what everyone else wears as I don't like smelling like everyone else. I never buy scents that are being advertised as that's sure way to get everyone smelling the same in the moment.
Did anybody mention Botega Veneta EDP? I really love it, and have not found anything like it. If you haven’t already smelled it, I highly recommend.
The poll is limited to YOUR Instagram followers not everyone on Instagram. This is important because the people polled a might be all related in age, interests, geography, etc. That doesn’t mean those are the best or most popular fragrances.
My fav is Amazing Grace by Philosophy, but I could use a change.
I can't believe Si' Fiore is discontinued. That was the best one to me. :(
Right now I'm loving Perfect by Marc Jacobs, and Cassiopea by Tiziana Terenzi, and Attrape-Reves by Louis Vuitton. But the one I am wearing daily is Sunset Hour by Goldfield and Banks. It's wonderful. Do you accept decanted samples? I'd be happy to send you a bit.
I just got a sample of Sunset Hour from luckyscent and I love it.
@@arsmith6585 I ordered from ZGO Perfumery in San Francisco. They sent me a 15% off code. If you'd like it, I'm happy to share. (no connection to them at all other than being a customer.)
I have so many faves it's ridiculous. Currently it's Tom Ford's Lost Cherry, which I can't get enough of. I also love Mon Guerlain EDP (not the EDT), Alien, Prada's Candy and also their Infusion d'Iris, The Body Shop's White Musk will always be a love, as will Hugo Boss Deep Red. Gucci Flora - but only the EDP which is really syrupy/fruity as well as floral that always gets me compliments. Chanel Madamoiselle is an everyday go-to which I like, but doesn't thrill me. Gucci Guilty Intense (when it was first released) also got me lots of compliments. L' Occitane's Cherry Blossom is a spring favourite, and Roger & Gallet's Fleur de Figuer is what I always wear when it's so hot I need something to cut through the fetid summer fug. I adore Rouge Baccarat but it works so much better for me in winter, while my favourite autumn scent is Ange ou Demon by Givenchy.
I used to have Dior Midnight Poison as my favourite, but it got discontinued and I'm gutted, because that really was my all-time signature favourite. I was also gutted when Cacherel stopped making Gloria because that too was a real favourite. Same with Dior Addict. I also LOVED Valentino's Donna Acqua which smelled like Mon Guerlain, but with marzipan and pear notes. I discovered it just as it was being discontinued. I'm kind of doomed when it comes to scents. Or anything really. As soon as I decide I like something, it gets discontinued, lol. I'm just ridiculously obsessed with fragrance, not at all snobbish about price or labels...in fact I really enjoy Katy Perry's Killer Queen - especially when I can buy a perfume, shower gel & body lotion for £15!
Have you tried Narciso Musc Noir? I personally don't love the other Narciso, but this one I actually love!!! To me it's a really soft and clean soapy scent perfect for everyday... I'd love to hear your thoughts!🥰
not yet I haven't!
I have my eye on that one!
Musc Noir Rose is even better in my opinion!
My mother would buy me a new bottle of Estee Lauder’s “spellbound “ each birthday for years, in my youth; Chanel “Limited edition Poppy” is on my dresser and Christian Dior “miss Dior”.
I actually have to test products like this before buying. Try to steer clear of the pop diva perfumes as I view them as temporary
Si fiori from Armani seems to Been launched 2018-2019. If this is so popular-,why are they not going to sell it anymore? I tried to find on swedish sites But could only find it on one little
My favourite fragrance at the moment is either the much overhyped Creed Aventus for her or Guerlain La Petite Robe Noir Black Perfecto.
Hi, Ilythia. I hope you could review Elie Saab Le Parfum in White and recommendation on cheap but smell expensive perfume. :D
Love Elie Saab Le Parfum
@@gladhead how was it? 😩
@@jazelannehomol3762 I found it at $39.00 with a trusted seller from Ebay. It is not a lineal perfume it is airy, floral, fruity a little sweet and has an amazing projection on me a fantastic sillage (I over spray everything😬😳) on my skin lasts 9 to 10 hours, longer in my hair and until cleaning on textiles. After all, is a Francis Kurkdjian creation.
I have had it before and it's gorgeous - but for me a bit too strong. I wanted to keep it but couldn't, I got headaches. But absolutely beautiful scent.
@@thesimplechiclife Could it be as strong as YSL Libre?
